A home with sweeping views of Lake Michigan, set within a gated community, is up for sale in Charlevoix.
The property at 11649 Summerhill is just a short drive from the town amenities in Charlevoix, Bay Harbor and Petoskey. It’s listed for $2,599,000.
The 4,316-square-foot, three-bedroom, four-bathroom home is newer construction, built in 2020, and offers a move-in-ready residence.
“A couple of neat things about this house is it’s in a private gated community…” said Pat Leavy of Kidd and Leavy Real Estate, noting that there are only a handful of such communities in the area. “It’s at the end of the street, so technically, there’s hardly any neighbors to the one side of it.”
From its northwest-facing views over the lake, the property is an ideal setting to watch storms and sunsets, Leavy said.
“And it’s got one of the most incredible water views in the Petoskey area that you could ask for,” he said.
The home is quality construction, Leavy said, and features black walnut flooring throughout, custom millwork and large Kobe windows. The kitchen has Thermador professional appliances and custom Stillwater cabinetry within an open-concept layout that connects to the main living space.
The home is outfitted with a fully integrated smart home system, including a comprehensive security system, a whole-house generator and whole-house reverse osmosis water purification.
In addition to the lake views, the bedroom suite on the main floor offers access to the outdoors and a spa-like bath with a walk-in tile shower. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms as well as a full bath and an office or flex space. The lower level has additional space that the new owner can customize for their needs.
“It’s in immaculate condition,” Leavy said. “Somebody could come in and start enjoying it right away.”
The home is surrounded by mature trees for privacy, as well as professional landscaping that blends into the setting. There’s a designed patio, outdoor Sonos sound system and fenced yard.
“It checks a lot of the boxes,” Leavy said.
